The key is for this switch on the front panel of the 2108A:

No, that key won't work. The one Mike is looking for is dual sided key and
controls a switch (off, on, standby, etc.). Yours the key is just a latch.
I had a ton of those xxxxA machines, but guess I traded them all off. Wouldn't
surprise me, I standardized on the newer power supplies and E-series.

Subject: Re: HP 2108A key
Well, I don't think you checked with *this* Jay. ;)
Would the key from an HP 2112B likely work? It looks very much like the
2108A, just a tad larger (more cards). I have an HP 2112B, and it has
its key.
See a photo at :

The key is 1 1/2" long, and has the number 4T1427 stamped on it.

Does anyone have a key for a HP 2108A? This is one of the original
21MX M-series machines. The key is NOT the same as for the E and
F-series machines.
I already checked with Jay.
